Rolled credits on Big Walk, extremely delightful game and we'll definitely go back and 100% it. The last set of puzzles in particular were a blast, @househouse.com team deserve all the praise!

Honestly it's both comedy and horror, I didn't think it would mix so well but the "small town government" energy shows up at really entertaining moments

we have control mechanisms for this. it's called The Law. these guys should be held personally liable for these harms. the suicides, the thefts, the intrusions into computer systems. they should be sued and prosecuted as appropriate. problem immediately solved

Like Musk promising full self driving just two years away for the last decade - at some point it becomes pointless for lots of people to bother evaluating the current state of progress because use of "revolutionary" tools produced crap too often.

Kyle Conroy @kyconroy.bsky.social · 21/08/2026

There's likely another factor which I haven't seen mentioned so far - hype fatigue. Three years ago Gen AI promised the same miracles that are promised today, when the tech was far less capable of producing them. Much more slop. No incentive to personally check on progress given failed promises.

OK if you're gonna complain about how all the options in the general election suck, you have to turn out in the primary when it matters. Primary turnout is embarrassingly low.

And the boundary I and many others choose to set is to not use directly use them to the degree where that is possible. I can't stop the entire tech sector from using these tools. I can choose to not use them myself and to consistently point out the harm that they cause.

Kyle Conroy @kyconroy.bsky.social · 11/07/2026

Also I imagine lots of folks including myself think the enormous set of negative externalities that come from AI development and use are not worth the value it offers.

Finished Metroid Prime 4 today - mechanically very solid IMO, probably my favorite systems since prime 1. Needed to tone down the "assist" feature frequency but that's pretty common these days. Narratively, too many asspulls IMO and the last 5 min feels so out of character as to be unbelievable.

I think the internet has done a weird thing where it has made everyone expect everything to be free? And the people who make things still deserve to be paid. Paying for good things to keep existing is a decent thing to do.

"bUT iTs a PVp gAme" It doesn't have to be! Why have aggression based matchmaking at all if your other incentives are just going to force players into fighting each other anyways? Some of the best moments in ARC for me have been about lobbies coming together and helping each other out.

Kyle Conroy @kyconroy.bsky.social · 03/01/2026

I'm finding the current season of Arc Raiders to have been very poorly designed - they put three expedition materials on only one map that are rare spawns in only a couple areas. It's the map folks who didn't want sweaty PvP always avoids already so it's just punishing you for not doing murders :\

begging the media to understand that public services are not businesses and that they should not report that they lose money since that is an intrinsic part of any public service. they cost money, they don’t lose it. that is how public services are designed.

If you're just looking to get familiar with the editor and maybe level building work lows it might be OK? I went to a couple talks at UEFest about developing new game logic in UEFN and it was very strange and only now headed towards the Actor/Component model using Verse

Kyle Conroy @kyconroy.bsky.social · 22/11/2025

Absolutely do not start with UEFN if you're interested in learning how studios make games with Unreal for professional development, IMO. The design paradigm is extremely different.
